Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a container to be discarded after use and intended for feeding more particularly infants and hereinafter called “bottle", said bottle and its contents being previously sterilized during packaging.
  • Sterilization can take place according to any known process.
  • Containers of this type in which the bottle is in fact a lost package, are known. They are generally sold in a grouped form of four or six containers, filled for example with fruit juice, closed by a metal cap.
  • the cap is removed and a teat is fitted to the container by means of a ring which screws onto a corresponding thread on the container.
  • the metal caps do not offer any guarantee of inviolability, therefore of asepsis, with respect to the content of the container. There is in fact no way for the consumer to ensure that the container has never been opened before.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these various drawbacks by proposing packaging of the disposable bottle type after single use which is reliable with regard to asepsis, which includes a guarantee of inviolability and which is capable of solving the problems of sealing.
  • this result is obtained with a container to be discarded after use and intended for feeding more particularly infants, of the "baby bottle” type, said baby bottle and its content being previously sterilized during packaging, characterized in that '' it is closed by a closure assembly with a guarantee of inviolability comprising a disc closing the neck of the bottle, a seal being interposed between said disc and the upper edge of the neck against which it comes to be applied , the disc being held by a ring screwed onto the neck and comprising a tamper-evident device.
  • Such an assembly is filled, for example, with fruit juice and sterilized as it is.
  • the closure device essentially comprises on the one hand a disc on which is placed a seal capable of absorbing imperfections and of being applied elastically against the edge of said neck without being driven in rotation, which would deteriorate and could compromise the sealing, and on the other hand a ring.
  • the disc will be made of any material having an absolute seal against any release or gas infiltration. In particular, it should allow the preservation of sterility conditions.
  • I1 may for example be metallic, the seal being applied to the periphery thereof.
  • the disc and the seal may have come in one piece.
  • the disc Taking into account the depression caused by sterilization in the container, the disc will be held by "suction" against the upper edge of said container.
  • the ring In order to manage to open the container without any particular effort, provision will be made, according to an advantageous mode of implementation of the invention, for the ring to have a circular internal boss, of internal diameter smaller than the external diameter of the disc, over the entire internal periphery of the ring or only according to one or more sectors thereof.
  • the discs may also be made for the discs to be snapped into appropriate receptive structures for the ring so that the assembly can be brought as it is before its placement on the bottle.
  • the container according to the invention will also include a tamper-evident device such as, for example, but not limited to, that described in French patent application No. 74.39911 to which express reference is made here.
  • FIG. 1A Please refer to FIG. 1A.
  • the body (1) is generally made of glass or any other synthetic material whose physical characteristics are compatible with the various treatments, in particular sterilization.
  • the periphery of the metal disc (2) On the upper edge (9) of said neck is applied the periphery of the metal disc (2).
  • a seal (3) is interposed at the level of the contact zone between the disc (2) and the edge (9).
  • the central part of the disc (2) is preferably shaped according to a boss (10) whose function will be explained later.
  • the disc (2) is kept applied against the neck (6) by means of the ring (4) screwed onto the thread (7) of the container.
  • This ring will preferably include ribs (11) facilitating its operation by the user.
  • the ring (4) is hollowed out at its upper part according to a chamfer (12) which cooperates with the boss (10) to position the disc (2) exactly.
  • the ring (4) cooperates with the sealing ring (5) of which it is secured by means of a collar (13).
  • the flange (13) came integrally with the ring (5) according to a weakening zone constituted by a line of lesser thickness or a succession of bridges that can be cut.
  • the ring (4), the collar (13) and the ring (5) have come from molding.
  • the assembly (13-5) is independent of the ring (4). This controls the movement of the collar (13) by means of a shoulder (14) which cooperates with a corresponding shoulder (15) of the collar.
  • the flange has an internal diameter slightly greater than that of the external diameter of the stop rib (8).
  • the tamper-evident ring (5) has an annular re-entrant part (16) whose internal diameter is less than the external diameter of the stop rib (8).
  • a more sustained effort from the user then causes the junction between the ring (5) and the flange (13) to break.
  • the ring can then be completely unscrewed, so as to replace the disc (2) with a nipple (17).
  • the ring (5) falls on the bottom of the body (1) of the container, thus visualizing the opening of the container.
  • the sterilization treatment carried out on the container fitted with the disc and the screwed ring, leads to the creation, on cooling, of a depression in the bottle which tends to apply, independently of the ring, the disc (2) and the seal. (3) against the neck of the bottle.
  • the opening of the bottle during the first use does not imply any particular effort to break the tamper-evident ring and then the integral boss of the threaded ring takes off the sealing disc breaking the vacuum created by the hot filling or the pasteurization.
  • the closing and opening torque is therefore perfectly suited to young people because of the three-piece construction: tamper-evident ring, sealing disc and threaded ring providing a good grip without, however, injuring the hands.
  • the disc (2) and the ring (4) are made integral with each other before screwing on the bottle . This can be achieved by the boss (18).
  • this can also be achieved by snapping the disc into an adequate receiving structure of the ring, for example by producing an undercut on the peripheral zone of the boss (10) of the disc.
  • This structure must nevertheless allow the free rotation of the disc relative to the ring so that there is always compression of the seal at the time of screwing without rotation thereof, due to the adhesion to the glass.
